A useful textbook for planning the A Level course. Some sections are rather too detailed for some students to access at the start of the A Level course and there is a lot of background detail which, while useful, can make it difficult to see clearly what the most important information is. The Developments section is probably the most clear and the most helpful with a real focus on the exact demands of the specification.
